[quote=Anonymous]This arguing thing is a childish response to getting caught doing something. I know a lot of people who do it, and as a college professor, I've encountered a lot of young people who do it. The idea is that even a barely plausible excuse should exonerate the person from any hint of wrong-doing, and make it wrong for you to "punish" that person. I assume they learn this technique from parents and other adults who take, "I found evidence that you did X horrible thing," and argue that since I once ate a grape at Whole Foods before I paid for the bunch, I can't cast stones. Or something. The filter thing is a deflection. Just be straight-forward and matter-of-fact, and if you are at the point where you are considering firing her, there is nothing to lose in sitting her down and explaining that not everything is up for discussion, and her attitude is about to cost her the job.[/quote]
